About the role

Own various aspects of algorithms and DSP blocks that optimize the performance of Mythic’s unique analog compute-in-memory technology from concept to customer deployment. This includes calibration loops, non-linearity compensation, offset-correction and estimation of residual-errors. Work with model-training, compiler and firmware teams to productize these algorithms.

More about this role

Mythic is building the future of AI computing with breakthrough analog technology that delivers 100× the performance of traditional digital systems at the same power and cost. This unlocks bigger, more capable models and faster, more responsive applications—whether in edge devices like drones, robotics, and sensors, or in cloud and data center environments. Our technology powers everything from large language models and CNNs to advanced signal processing, and is engineered to operate from –40 °C to +125 °C, making it ideal for industrial, automotive, aerospace, and defense. We’ve raised over $100M from world-class investors including Softbank, Threshold Ventures, Lux Capital, and DCVC, and secured multi-million-dollar customer contracts across multiple markets.

Mythic's analog compute hardware is a massive integration of analog and digital components on a single chip, with multiple cascaded digital and analog stages. The fundamental compute atomic is a vector-product that is entirely processed in the analog domain. So, analog impairments like ADC/DAC non-linearity and weight-noise directly impact the accuracy of the vector-multiply operation. Mitigation techniques for these...
